The Art of Healing

Housing Works’ Creative Arts Therapy, part of our Empowerment Wellness Program, helps clients handle the emotional challenges of living with HIV. “Art Therapy is the No. 1 most important program for me,” says client Niccolo Cataldi. Read more about Cataldi and see the beautiful collage from which the above detail is taken.

Cataldi’s art (collage) will be included in Fresh Perspectives: New visions of the human journey towards healing, an exhibit of artwork by Housing Works clients and staff at the Leslie/Lohman Gay Art Foundation at 26 Wooster Street (between Grand & Canal Streets). Attend the private opening reception on Thursday, August 6, from 6-8pm, or visit the public exhibition on August 7, from noon to 6pm. Artwork will be available for sale or by silent auction. Proceeds benefit Housing Works.

To RSVP to the private reception or for more information, contact Diana Gongora at d.gongora@housingworks.org.

Art Therapy is just one part of a comprehensive array of Housing Works holistic health care services. Support Housing Works and all we do to help New Yorkers living with HIV/AIDS by making an additional gift now.
